Today is National Apple Pie Day, and looking at this picture I found on Pixabay, made me hungry for one. I haven't made one for awhile. It is one of my favourite pies. I make mine with a bit of Stevia, lots of cinnamon, and no sugar. I have a frozen pie crust in the freezer, so maybe will pick up some apples today and make a pie. I usually freeze part of it, so that I don't eat it all at once. Do you like to make apple pie?

I have never made a apple pie. I have made several pumpkin ones though.

@AnneEJ ....Good reason to use nutmeg and cinnamon.

@AnneEJ I have a bad reaction to Stevia like I do to all the alternative, I have tried.

@BelleStarr I have no problem with Stevia, refuse to use Splenda or other artificial ones.

I used to use sugar, but trying to stay away from it. A little bit of Stevia makes it sweet enough for me.

I don't make pies, I never got the knack of making the crust properly, so I usually pick one up at the bakery when we have a craving for one. My favorite is strawberry rheubarb, although your picture of the apple pie looks awfully tempting right now!

@AnneEJ I always wanted to get good at making pie crust, but it hasn't happened yet. One of these days I'll set my mind to it and master it, I did that with home made soups.

I used to be very good at making pies, but am so out of practice, my crust doesn't usually turn out that well. So I often buy the frozen pie shells. I find that the apple pieces are too beg in the store-bought pies. I slice mine very thinly.

I don't like to make it, but it's are delicious. I love it with lots of custard.

@AnneEJ I don't know what Stevia is.

@jaboUK It is a natural sweetener, from a plant. It comes in powder or liquid.

I don't think I ever had it with custard. I just use cinnamon and a bit of Stevia

Do you prefer it with cheese or ice cream, or just plain?

I've baked many, but prefer other fruit pies. We have leftover blueberry pie from last evening.

When you use cinnamon, you don't need much other sweetener

Believe it or not... I laden half the pie with cinnamon because that's the way I like it... no one else does :( I have never tried Stevia, but it makes sense. We eat too much sugar and it you can cut back... even better!

I haven't made an apple pie in ages but our local market has some delicious ones with a crumb topping (which is my favorite). I just might have to indulge and celebrate this apple pie day
